Hi, avast just updated this morning and identified the GTA: San Andreas cheat trainer ‘pztrain.exe’ as a trojan horse. A mate of mine scanned the same file with two other scanners and turned up nothing. I’m thinking this is a false positive file detected by the latest VPS.
btw it is also reported as “Trojan.Downloader.Swizor.CO” by Bitdefender.
I think that its a false positive because it never tried to connect and that PiZZADOX is a well known producer of quality trainers group.
As a workaround, you can add these files to the Standard Shield provider (on-access scanning) exclusion list.
Left click the ‘a’ blue icon, click on the provider icon at left and then Customize. Go to Advanced tab and click on Add button…
You can use wildcards like * and ?. But be carefull, you should ‘exclude’ that many files that let your system in danger.
After that, please, periodically check it - scan it into Chest, right clicking the file - there should still be a copy in the chest even though you restored it to the original location. When it is no longer detected as being infected then you can also remove it from the Exclusion list.
